Limitations

  • ABN only lookup

    This capability looks up entities by ABN only. It does not support search by company name, ACN, or other identifiers.

  • Physical address limited to state and postcode

    The ABR API only returns state and postcode for the main business address, not full street address.

  • Historical data not included by default

    The lookup returns current entity status. Historical name changes and status changes are not included.
